Arizona finally cried out all of her tears and forced April to leave her alone in her misery. She didn't want to leave her like that, but Arizona told her she was just going to go to bed.

In truth, she'd just started looking at photos of her family in happier times. Photos from when Sofia was just a baby. When Mark was alive. When Callie still loved her. There was one particular photo that she couldn't stop staring at — a picture Callie took of her passed out cold with a 6-month-old Sofia asleep on her chest.

Arizona thought this is the lowest she'd ever felt — shocking for her to say, but it felt accurate. Even after the amputation, Sofia was the bright light in the darkness pushing her forward.

When Arizona heard a knock on the door, she considered ignoring it. After all, seeing someone right now is the last thing she wanted to do. But, it persisted and she gave in.

Much to her surprise, she found Callie on the other side drenched from the downpour outside.

"Hi," Callie said with a big smile.

"What are you doing here? You're supposed to be getting on a plane," Arizona said wiping the remnants of tears from her face.

"I was wrong about all of it. I made you a promise a long time ago and when I really thought about what I want for Sofia and for myself, I realized that I was about to make a terrible mistake," Callie said.

"What are you saying?" Arizona asked confused at where this was going.

"We're not going to New York… You really are Sofia's favorite person and you are so important to her… and to me. We are a family — you, me and Sofia — and we need to stick together."

"What about New York? What about Penny?" Arizona asks.

"I called Penny and told her it was over. I care about her, but I want more — for me and for Sofia and for you.

I've been thinking a lot and — you were right — I rush into things. I don't always see things how they really are, but more how I wish they could be. The only time I've done it right, taking my time to really see someone and fall in love with them, was… with you."

"But, I thought you needed to go to be happy. I don't want you to do this and feel stuck with me here again," Arizona said letting her insecurities rise.

"I was confused. Our family makes me happy. I don't need more than that.

I wish I could take that back — saying I felt stuck with you. We went through some really traumatic things in the first few years of our marriage, more than some couples deal with in a lifetime. I don't think many newlyweds would've escaped all of that unscathed. I'm not glossing over it — it was painful and overwhelming — but I think we can both agree we were hard on each other. We're human and mistakes were made. At some point, we deserve forgiveness. I don't know about you, but enough time has passed for me.

You changed. You bent for us, for Sofia. You made my dream, your dream. You are a great mom and even after our marriage ended — you put everything aside for our family. I don't know where I would be if we weren't in this for her together. You deserve to be happy too.

I hope you can forgive me. I would claim temporary insanity if I thought it'd help," Callie finished with a smile and Arizona realized her mouth was hanging open in disbelief.

"I'd still like to get together, just the two of us, when you're ready and talk about that last conversation we had. There's so much I want to say to you and I'm not afraid of it anymore," Callie said uneasily.

Arizona could've asked her to pinch her. It didn't feel real.

"Anyways, Sofia's in the car. I thought you might like to have her for the weekend and then we can go back to our old schedule… if that's okay with you?" Callie asked.

"That'd be great," Arizona said quickly before someone woke her from this wonderful dream.

"Okay, I'll go grab her," Callie said turning to walk back out into the rain.

"Callie," Arizona said making her turn around in the rain. "Thank you," Arizona whispered softly flashing her a relieved smile.

Callie smiled back at her and gave a reaffirming nod.

"So coffee… soon?" Callie asked anxiously.

"Definitely," Arizona said immediately.

When their daughter ran to her from the car, she squeezed her so tight she squealed, "Mama, I can't breathe," in between giggles. Arizona waved at a drenched Callie who was standing there in the rain with a delighted smile on her face watching them reunite.

And just like that, Arizona's nightmare had come to a close.

Note: Well there it is. I'm really split on how I want the show to handle this — mostly because I don't want to wait the hiatus for our reunion. After so little for so long on the show, it'd be much more interesting for me to see them date and get to know each other again. I thought within my story, Arizona would be in a better headspace if they have their defining conversation separately from finding out that Sofia is staying put. Coffee date coming soon.
